         		 Serene Sri Lanka: a monk walking at sunset, his last walk of the day: by silviaemilia, Views[534]
         		 On my way home, I stopped at Lahugala to observe elephants. But unluckily they had already left the river bank. What I could capture was this Hawk. But it was a pretty good snap because it flew near so that the beautiful designs of its feathers were visible.: by sameeraabeysuriya, Views[428]
     
    We were treated with so much hospitality at the farmer’s little palace. The garden was a true beauty with all types of vegetables grown. And it was a bird paradise. A coconut tree was full of these birds, (we call them WADU (means carpenter) birds and their nests. It was such a beautiful housing scheme. Wadu bird is such a crafty nest builder and tourists have a high demand on them. But its illegal to sell them or their nests.: by sameeraabeysuriya, Views[1510]
         		 We went to the above mentioned farmers house with his invitation. On the way what we saw was a young girl, her two little brothers and grandmother taking their cattle for feeding them. Cattle become very helpful in their cultivation and bring them a small extra income.: by sameeraabeysuriya, Views[621]
         		 The youth follows their elders’ steps and take up the burden of cultivation. Farmers’ daughters get married around their 18’s usually to another farmers son where they strive to increase the land cultivated. This is a picture of such a young mother with her baby. : by sameeraabeysuriya, Views[384]
         		 Monaragala is the major corn producing district of Sri Lanka. And the majority of the people here are corn farmers. Rain is a crucial factor for the cultivation. Both drought and heavy rains can damage the crop. Here this farmer is worried about the inadequacy of rainwater for his cultivation since that is what keeps his family fed. : by sameeraabeysuriya, Views[857]

         		 The photos represents the simple yet content life lived by a farming family in the rural areas of Sri Lanka. Their lives lag behind in time, with no electricity, piped water or machinery. The nearest village has to be accessed through 5km of thick forest where elephant attacks are not a rarity. The children have little heard of schools. They live in tree houses/

         		 I wonder whether the boy attends school. In a remote area in Srilanka, small boys like him do not have the money even to buy footwear. They help their parents by carrying buckets of water to fill up their water barrels (yeah barrels, not tanks) from nearby streams, cleaning the house, running on small errands, etc.: by srilankan, Views[611]
     
    What might be his mind wondering about? maybe he thinks: If i could travel on the foot board again like i used to travel when i was young. Maybe he is enjoying the wind blowing in his face. The mystery lies within him.: by srilankan, Views[2230]
         		 The flower says: Although the mighty train travels above me, i am strong and i survived all these days. Although i am different among all the others near me, i am not embarrassed, i consider myself as unique. I love myself.: by srilankan, Views[906]
         		 This lady was captured in a very remote area in Srilanka where she has to carry this bag (weekly provision for her family) among these hills where the only mode of transport for these villagers is the local train down beneath the hills. Also the bag as i mentioned above is their WEEKLY provision while such a bag would be just one meal for most of us.Yes, they are so poor.: by srilankan, Views[661]
         		 i was about 300m before tunnel when i heard the sound of the train and i ran with my camera and i saw the light of the train appearing through the tunnel and i did not have much time to set my exposure, but i did my best and zoomed full range up to 55mm with my kit lens.: by srilankan, Views[1415]
